It is easy to make a beautiful flower arrangement using early blooming spring flowers. They help and give our spirits a real lift and clear our path for winter.
One notable attribute of spring flowers is that they can be very fragrant. Freesia blooms smell almost like an expensive perfume. The red and orange freesia flowers tend to have a more powerful spicier scent than the white or yellow varieties.
Lilacs are also highly arommatic which come in all shades of purple, pink and white and Lily of the Valley. Lilacs look beautiful mixed in with other flowers such as peonies. However peonies do not really become widely available until June. Lilac and peony perfume for women are also going to be very trendy this spring.
If you want to fill a room with gorgeous scent try making a fragrant display that contains freesia, lilac, peonies, roses and hyacinths all together. If you can’t get the real thing, try getting one of the new air fresheners that are out.
Soft pastel colored flowers such as daffodils (Narcissus), hyacinths, and amaryllis are only in season for a short period of time—from February to April—and can really brighten up any space. Paper white type crocuses and lilies look amazing budding from a bulb that is in a glass flowerpot and filled with pebbles or glass rocks. This type of spring flower project is also a good one to do with any kids that are around because they can watch the flower grow.
Tulips make gorgeous centerpieces. You float three or four fresh flowers like daisies or brightly colored tulips in a pretty bowl or simply suspend a single flower inside a round vase. Clusters of multi-colored tulips are very festive
Double tulips can be very luxurious looking and they are cheaper than roses… An all red bouquet of double tulips can be as romantic as a dozen roses
Remember that when you bring your spring flowers inside you are bringing their optimism and freshness with you.
